Sanctuary is an exclusive vacation home for those seeking a peaceful, uniquely tranquil experience where the beauty of art, architecture, and nature nourish the body and soul. The first U.S. built home designed by renowned West Vancouver architect, Brian Hemingway and built by Thomas Noonan Construction culminates the owner's 20-year vision and plan for a spectacular coastal retreat. The style and craftsmanship of this home has been described as a piece of "green" artwork combining the natural elements of wood, glass, and slate to harmonize with the surrounding redwoods and unparalleled coastal views from Trinidad Head to Arcata and Eureka from virtually every room. Expansive outdoor decks and bedroom terraces allow enjoyment of ocean breezes while the interior architectural details will enthrall guests and transcend every climactic condition outside. New hot tub for a further relaxing experience.

Arrival times are restricted to before 8 pm because a representative from our company will meet you at the property upon your arrival.

The home is equipped with a full laundry room with brand new Maytag Neptune washer and dryer, wireless internet access, high definition audiovisual systems including two large screen LCD TVs, state of the art Electrolux kitchen appliances, radiant floor heating, two gas fireplaces and an outdoor gas barbeque. Three bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other two with queen beds contain their own bathrooms and a fourth small "bunkroom" is ideal for kids with two single beds. The main master suite has a wall of glass to take in the most amazing ocean view. The bathroom features double sinks, a towel warmer rack, a walk in shower with three showerheads, and an ocean view sitting area. Large custom-made door panels in the living areas and bedrooms open indoor spaces to the outside. Huge concrete patio deck area with perimeter seating.

Out of respect and kindness to the neighbors, we are unable to allow large gatherings at any of our homes. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Sanctuary is located one mile south of Trinidad on the Scenic Drive bluff 10 minutes from the Arcata/Eureka Airport, providing commercial and private jet service from LA, Redding & Portland. It is a ten minute hike to secluded and pristine Baker Beach and a short drive to many other fabulous flat and rocky beaches in the area. Within a 10 minute drive north, you have access to multiple natural attractions such as Trinidad Head Trail, Patrick's Point State Park, Agate Beach, Redwood National Park including Lady Bird Johnson Grove, Prairie Creek State Park, Fern Canyon and herds of Roosevelt elk. To the south, explore Humboldt State University and Arcata, Old Town, Eureka, the Eureka Waterfront, and the Victorian Village of Ferndale. Trinidad harbor supplies charter boats for ocean fishing, sightseeing, and whale watching excursions depending upon season while the Trinity, Klamath, Eel and Mad Rivers offer world class trout, steelhead and salmon fishing as well as river rafting and kayaking. Excellent restaurants abound in Trinidad, Arcata, and Eureka. Your choice-relax on the decks and simply enjoy the surroundings or explore the wild north coast and return to your "Sanctuary.

“A truly spectular home in the perfect location”

Left on 03/18/2014 for a stay in February 2014 | DennisReviewed Mar 18, 2014Stayed Feb 2014

A truly spectular home in the perfect location! We shared this house with friends and had a fantastic time. This area offers so much amazing things to do including the redwood parks, beaches, lagoons, fishing, antiquing, and plenty of great restaurants, cafes, etc, both in Trinidad and also arcata and Eureka. This house was so nice that we felt guilty leaving it, but it was so nice when we would get back in the afternoon to sip wine out on the deck and watch the whales playing in the ocean below.

“Discreetly spectacular!”

No detail was forgotten in this beautiful home. From the heated floors to the quality hardware, you will not be disappointed. The best part of staying here is the unsurpassed views of the Trinidad coast from every part of the house. You will feel recharged after your visit!

“beautiful house and view BUT!!”

Left on 12/01/2010 for a stay in November 2010 | Walter M.Reviewed Dec 1, 2010Stayed Nov 2010

the heating system did not work properly(confirmed by a tech called by owner or?)and all were cold except on a couple of sunny days. The firepalce in the main room was disappointing with a very small flame viible. the hot water circulating system didnt exist or didnt work requiring several minutes to get hot water to the master bath.The need to haul trash several miles is inconvenient considering what we paid. operating the tvs is difficult even for an engineer.
these are items that should be corrected since overall the house met all our expectations and the family had a great Thanksgiving. It should be noted we have 2 granddaughters attending Humboldt State so we expect to visit the area again

I am glad that the house met your needs overall and it was a pleasure meeting you. We have since corrected the heating and hot water issue (it is radiant floor heating and the issues were related). We also realized someone had shut off the blower on the fireplace which is why it was not warming up the room like it should have. TV is slightly complicated but we now have very clear directions for it's use, and it can be used simply with the cable tv remote if someone does not want all of the bells and whistles.
